Technical fault disrupts BBC NI’s Spotlight programme

BBC Northern Ireland’s current affairs programme Spotlight was disrupted last night by a technical fault.

Shortly after 11pm, the picture froze. Just under a minute later, a breakdown graphic appeared, accompanied by a verbal apology from the announcer. The breakdown music seemed to be inadvertently dipped early on.

The programme resumed just over six-and-a-half minutes later, with some minor sound level issues initially.
